NFL Prop Bet for Seahawks-Cardinals

  • The Pick: Andy Isabella Over 19.5 Rec Yards (-112)

Kyler Murray struggled against the Cowboys last week, completing only 9-of-24 passes for 188 yards, easily cashing the under 287.5 (i.e. my favorite prop of that Monday night game).

Murray just missed Andy Isabella for a would-be 72-yard touchdown on the first drive of that matchup, and Isabella ended up going catch-less, but this presents an excellent buy low opportunity for Isabella in a game in which I expect the passing offense to bounce back in a potential shootout.

Last week, the Cardinals ran fewer 4-WR sets in their 38-10 win, which is why Isabella's routes run per dropback fell to 32% (after averaging 47% over the previous three games). I expect that jump back up into the 50% range (or higher) considering the Cardinals offense will be attempting to keep up with Russell Wilson and the Seahawks.

The Seahawks will be without stud safety Jamal Adams, which is a massive blow to a defense that's been torched for 70 or more receiving yards by 11 different wide receivers through five games. Given DeAndre Hopkins will be at less than 100% while playing through an ankle injury, he may be more of a decoy, freeing up a player like Isabella to eat.

Isabella is a boom-or-bust player with a wide range of outcomes, but I am projecting him for roughly three targets tonight, and he could clear this number on a single catch. I have this line closer to 28.5, and considering how great of an environment this matchup is for Isabella, I would bet it up to that.

Here's how often Isabella cleared the receiving yards in this range in my 10,000 player prop simulations:
